Re: Google Chrome
Damn it!
I was just gonna make a thread!
Ah well, I think it's the fastest browser I've used, but not as customizable and pretty as Opera.

Re: Google Chrome
Haven't had a time to use it but Google is so full of shit; saying "we wanted to start from scratch", horseshit, WebKit is exactly what I would call from scratch.

Re: Google Chrome
Just got it... it's okay I guess, it runs smoothly. In initially uses a bit more memory than other browsers, but saves memory in the long run. PLUS it has it's own task manager. However, I am having issues locating a 'find' option to find certain text on a page...
Update: So... I was searching &T on Chrome, then all of a sudden it relocated me to a bright red screen that said something along the lines of "Warning: this site is linked to the site vlaze.com and contains malware" What the fuck?

Re: Google Chrome
I think its poor personally already found 2 pretty significant (for me) bugs
1) middle click wont let the scroll cursor apear
2) using my laptop touchpad scroll it will only scroll downwards and not upwards?
I probably wont uninstall it but I am deffinatly sticking with FF.
I think google has actually gone to the point of making the browser actually too simple

Re: Google Chrome
will watch for other responses.
I think google has become as much as a leech as aol over time.
I totally kill any google tool bar and google update offerings.
I no longer respect google , other than their search page.

Re: Google Chrome
It's fast! I like it, it certainly has potential. Remember, it's still in beta stages. However, I'm definitely gonna stick with Firefox.
And, yeah, Google is getting a bit crazy with some of the software they're developing now. This and Google Earth are the only two programs I have installed on my comp by Google.

Re: Google Chrome
they chose webkit over gecho, which is why its much faster and memory efficient that Firefox.
i have been using for about half an hour and i have 1 issue:
cannot scroll up with my laptops touch pad.
This may take most of Operas market share.
It will never have an adblock equivalent or "youtube downloader" which makes it crappy for most of the firefox userbase.
